I am having trouble with my Internet Service Provider. It seems I am not receiving adequate Internet Service. I know this because it takes
HALF AN HOUR FOR A PAGE TO COME UP. ^@$%^&#$^$!$%!!!!

When I call Technical Support, they have a message that says it is the fault of the Backbone Provider, not them, the lowly Internet Service Provider.

I'm still laughing about that guy that was yapping in the movie theater. You gotta know that after the cops carted the Victim and the Offender away, and the shock wore off, that the people were laughing really hard about it.

I started this about a half an hour ago. I hope it makes it through my Backbone Provider.
